Astronomy is the study of everything in our Universe outside of the Earth's atmo- sphere, including the Universe as a whole ('cosmology').
This is a one-semester course on Computational Cosmology, aimed in particular at beginning graduate students working in cosmology.

The purpose of these lectures is to introduce students to some of the dynam- ical phenomena that are important in the evolution of galaxies and clusters.
We de scribe the physics of collisions and mergers of galaxies, and the influence of the surrounding galaxy on the evolution of smaller stellar systems orbiting.
